Julie Motz, Hands of Life, Part 4
I wonder if I'm going crazy--and then I think about all the messages
I have received from people's bodies over the years in which I have
worked as an energy healer. I know that this ability to tune in and hear
or feel what is going on inside them is one of the reasons people come
to me for healing. But this is different. I have never heard a part of a
body screaming, muttering, or moaning before.
What strikes me at the moment is how totally unprepared the body
seems to be for what is happening to it. No one has warned the vein that
it is going to be removed from its cozy, familiar position in the leg,
with sluggish venous blood oozing comfortably through it, to take up
duty as a coronary artery, sustaining the fast, throbbing flow of
arterial blood.
No one has told the brain that muscles will not respond to the
frantic messages it sends firing down the nerves, or that it will have
to nourish itself for an hour or more on chilled blood treated with a
special chemical to keep it from clotting in the machine. No one has
told the heart that it must lie quietly for a while, during which time
its whole reason for being, the movement of blood through the body, will
be taken over by an external device. And no one has thanked the body,
either in parts or as a whole, for its courage in undergoing this
ordeal.
